itchybromusic Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 what was that about to many ingredients in soil mixes , wow ! that' lots of poo ( N ) & not allot of carbon if your looking to make compost carbon to nitrogen ratio is very important for compost to breakdown & be a usable soil amendment when donenot to mention the turning of the pile & the pile to be a size no smaller than X , = can't remember , square meter i think i'll assume all the poo above is already composted cos you can't compost fresh manure in 30 days there is also well made compost ( like biodynamic made compost ) & not so well made compost , my thinking says N on top of N on top of N wouldn't be a compost considered well made imho good luck with it & if poo is your thing the highest NPK poo would be rabbit 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itchybromusic Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 (edited) Ahh no that's not correct grass hay & leaves are a N source in composting hay is used as feed for animals , meaning the plant was chopped B4 producing it's seed so all nutrients are still present in the plant = N source straw however , like barley straw , is the left overs after the plant has produced it's seed & been harvested , all nutrients in the plant were used to make seed = carbon source leaves fallen from trees & dried are a N source , grass clippings wet or dry are a N source roots systems from dead plants are carbon source , old potting soil is considered a carbon source what makes carbon in composting is material with zero nutrient value = as mentioned barley straw ,keep in mind the term straw & hay do get mixed up a bit , like Pea Straw , should be Pea Hay as chrystal is finding out , worm casting make things better , you'd be much better off vermi composting all that poo & add it to some peat & aeration , rather than gambling on getting quantities right with un composted poo ps some trees do suck the nutrients out of leaves B4 they fall , they would be a carbon source Edited January 29, 2018 by itchybromusic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
